We haven't travelled with cloth diapers yet, but we will be next week! I plan to use the Flip disposables for the actual "travel" part, and when we get there, use the stay-dry inserts. Fortunately, we will be staying somewhere where we have access to a washer and dryer!

When we travel to my mom's, we just take our usual stash with us (mostly BumGenius 4.0s) and just wash like we are at home. When we go to my MILs, we take disposables (she's not quite converted yet!) Fortunately, we are staying home this Christmas!

I use cloth!! Happy Heiny's and some BG3.0's and 4.0's! We just drove from Florida to MN with our 1 week old girl and then back to Fl when she was 2 months old and our 2 year old son! They were rockstar travelers and the CD's make trips so easy - no need to look for a trash when we need a quick stop (even on the side of the road) we just threw it in our PUL bag and closed the drawstring! Moneysaver and timesavers FOR SURE!!! LOVE LOVE LOVE my CDs!!! Merry Christmas!

So far we've only had day trips, but we've used cloth for those (and had only cloth on us the night we got stranded on I70 due to weather), and we were impressed with how great it worked! We plan on trying to keep up with the cloth no matter how far away we go! (but those flips with disposables are very tempting.. very)

It depends on how long/where we are traveling. When we flew to CA for a week and stayed in a hotel, we used sposies. If its a short trip we keep using cloth, or if we have a washing machine available. :D.

I use my regular cloth stash (which includes pockets, fitteds and hybrids) for weekend trips and when we take our yearly beach vacation since the house comes with a washer and dryer. If I was going to be gone for more than a few days without washing machine access, I would just use disposables.

I've yet to have a chance to travel with my LO, since he's still incubating (but almost done! :)). This is definitely on my mind, though, since I know we will have a wedding to attend in the late spring! I'm thinking I'll probably try to get some of the disposable inserts (not sure what brand yet!) and hopefully use them in the covers we already have. Unless, of course, I win this Flip pack! :)

I regularly use hybrid shells stuffed with prefolds or flats, but if I'm going out town, I'll use the disposable inserts the day before, so I don't have to lug a suitcase full of dirty diapers to my destination!maria.the.uncommon at gmail dot com

We haven't done many overnight trips since our daughter was born, but when we have, we just bring our usual stash! We don't have anything that's particularly suited for travelling - although I do tend to have AIOs in the diaper bag and keep the fitteds for nighttime.

So far we've only been able to use disposables when we travel, which I hate because I don't like spending so much for them. Plus we buy the more eco-friendly disposables when we travel which are much more expensive. However, we have to travel next week for a funeral and I don't have enough disposables for the trip so I'm going to be supplementing with my bumGenius 3.0 pocket diapers.

I have been using pocket diapers with extra inserts for quick changes. The gDiapers we have are too small or we'd be using those for sure though! For the all-day Xmas celebration with my parents we sort of wished we'd brought disposables but I think g's would have been just as easy.
